My Second Husband novel Chapter 302

When they arrived at the hospital, Bethany Hamilton had just finished wiping the Old Master's body.

Seeing the two of them, Bethany put down the towel in her hand, "You're here!"

Eudora George observed her body language, "Do you not suspect me?"

Bethany smiled and said, "Of course not. Didn't you say that the police are involved? Since that's the case, let's just let them run through the due process. What's the point of suspecting you? It'll just make things uncomfortable between us."

Before this, Eudora only treated Bethany with respect. Now, she was growing really fond of this woman.

She was indeed a very rational person and she was level-headed too.

"Thank you!" Eudora said sincerely.

Next, she put down the fruit and broth that they had brought and asked, "How's the Old Master doing?"

"He hasn't woken up yet. The doctors say that he may never wake up..."

Eudora frowned, "No! He will definitely wake up soon!"

Bethany smiled and shrugged, "It's fine. Sometimes, it's better to remain asleep."

Eudora was stunned for a moment, but Bethany quickly changed the topic.

"How is your foot? You have to be careful when you move around."

"Okay!" Eudora nodded, "Don't worry, I'm fine."

While they were talking, Amos Granger just stood beside his father's bed. No one could tell what he was thinking.

Seeing this, Bethany deliberately excused herself, "We are short on supplies so I'm going to head out with the servants to get them. Why don't you all stay here with the Old Master for a bit?"

Eudora nodded and went over to hold Amos' hand after Bethany left.

Amos broke out from his trance and smiled at Eudora.

"What are you thinking about?" Eudora asked.

Amos sighed, "I just thought of the time when my mother told me about him when I was a little child."

He was talking about the Old Master. Even though he didn't spell it out, Eudora knew who he was referring to.

Without waiting for her to answer, Amos spoke again,

"At that time, I was about at Juju's age. When I saw that everyone else had a father, I asked her what my father looked like. She told me that my father was a tall and masculine man and that he was well-known in the business world and he always lived a comfortable life. In short, he was the best person in the world." While Amos spoke, he also smiled.

"Would such a perfect person exist in this world? But I believed her words back then. If she could see him now, I wonder whether she would be disappointed."

Eudora shook her head, "No, Amos. I don't think so."

Amos looked at her doubtfully, so she proceeded to explain, "You don't understand women because you aren't one. I know that your mother believed in every single word she said. She loved him a lot, so in her eyes, he was that perfect person. Even up to this moment, she would see him that way."

Amos pursed his lips. After a while, he replied, "Maybe you're right. So, in your eyes, am I that good as well?"

This man...

How did he even wind up relating this to himself? However, she knew that this was his attempt at concealing the hurt in his heart.

She nodded, "Yes. To me, you're exactly like that."

Amos' lips curled up slightly, "To me, you're perfect as well."

Eudora couldn't bear it any longer. She felt goosebumps run all over her body. Luckily, her phone rang at that moment. She was afraid that it would disturb the Old Master so she grabbed her phone and quickly left the room.

It was Christopher Gellert. As soon as she picked up, she heard his anxious voice from the other end of the phone,

"What's going on? Are you hurt?" "How did you find out?"
